A week ago, reports came in that Samsung maybe looking to release its Bada OS as Open-Source sometime in next year, as their attempt to minimize its reliance on Android and Google. Just so you know, Bada is a mobile phone OS that has been developed by Samsung. Its name was derived from the word meaning ocean or sea in Korean. A year ago, Samsung released a SDK kit to attract developers to use the Bada Platform. Last August, Samsung released its version 2.0 of the SDK which brought with it many new enhancements over its predecessors. Yes, Bada isn’t wildly known yet, but it still made a significant mark within the mobile industry and is one of the fastest growing mobile OS.
